The short, simple answer is no.
Why? Because once we find a great OFS, we keep them. We hire someone good and train this person for our businesses. We didn’t go through all that work to recommend that OFS to someone else.
Do you know who gives recommends people to us? Our OFSs. Yes. When your OFS is happily working, they will find someone they know will perform well if you need more help.
This practical advice is just one of many we have in our blog. Head on to our outsourcing education page to catch the whole series.
If you’d rather check out reviews from entrepreneurs who already made the jump and have VAs of their own, here’s a list of reviews on Onlinejobs.ph.
I also have a new book that I am giving away for free, The Outsourcing Lever. It’s about how I have done outsourcing over the years. Get more information here.
